natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
That concerned mainly the retreading activity as during the period considered, at least 85 SMEs located in virtually all Member States stopped producing retreading tyres but also the closure of subsidiaries of large companies.
Poleg tega sta združenje CRIA in zbornica CCCMC trdila, da je s seznama strank, ki ga je predložil en dobavitelj tekalnih plasti, razvidno, da je bila ena stranka navedena kot nedejavna, iz njenih računovodskih izkazov, predloženih lokalnim organom, pa je razvidno, da je bila družba leta 2017 še vedno dejavna.
The flat trend of the Union production and the closure of companies are in contrast with the post-crisis growing consumption in the Union from which the Union industry could have benefited.
Komisija je v obvestilu v zvezi z dokumentacijo pojasnila, da je bil seznam pripravljen z združitvijo informacij o prodaji, ki jih je predložilo osem dobaviteljev tekalnih plasti.
Sales volume and market share
Za namene preiskave se je štelo, da je izvajalec protektiranja ustavil proizvodnjo, ko ni več kupoval tekalnih plasti.
After disclosure of the Information Document, the Commission established that, as implied in recital (625), the total sales volume in the Union market should be corrected in order to contain the sales of tread suppliers not members of ETRMA Europool.
Zato zgolj na podlagi seznama enega dobavitelja in/ali predloženih računovodskih izkazov ni mogoče z gotovostjo sklepati glede tega, ali je izvajalec protektiranja dejaven ali nedejaven.
The Union industry's sales volume and market share were revised accordingly and developed over the period considered as follows:
Poleg tega družba, ki jo je navedla zbornica CCCMC, sicer res ni prenehala poslovati, vendar je Komisiji potrdila, da je ustavila dejavnost svoje delavnice protektiranja.

Zato je Komisija še naprej uporabljala seznam, kot je bil pripravljen.

Višina zneskov subvencij
Total sales volume on the Union market (in items)
Vsi zneski subvencij so bili nad stopnjo de minimis.
In a growing market, sales in the Union decreased slightly over the period considered.
Višina dejanskih zneskov subvencij je glede na obseg in cene uvoza iz zadevne države znatno vplivala na industrijo Unije.
This resulted in a decrease by 5,3 percentage points of market share (from 72,4 % to 67,1 %) while import volume from the PRC increased by over 1,1 million of tyres, or an increase of 4,2 percentage points of market share (from 17,1 % to 21,3 %).
To je prva protisubvencijska preiskava zadevnega izdelka v Uniji.
The China National Tire Group and Pirelli claimed that the sales volume in the Union market remained stable over the previous three years and the market share of the Union industry decreased by 5 percentage points from 2014 to 2017, which is an insignificant decrease.
Zato ni bilo na voljo nobenih podatkov za oceno učinkov morebitne pretekle subvencije.
They also claimed that the volume of Union sales reported by the complaints for the period 2013 and 2016 showed a strong decline for tier 3 (– 30 %), a decline in sales for tier 2 (– 7 %) and a slight decline in sales for tier 1 (– 1 %).
Mikroekonomski kazalniki
As such, it was clear that the only injury could be found in the tier 3 segment and that the injury analysis must take into consideration the market segmentation.
Skupina Giti Group je Komisijo pozvala, naj razkrije tudi razvoj mikroekonomskih dejavnikov brez ponderiranja, ki ga je uporabila Komisija, da bi lahko analizirala, ali bi taki neobdelani podatki dali drugačno sliko škode.
The Commission noted that the figures mentioned in the previous recital relate to the sales of the complainants only, and not to the Union industry as a whole.
Enako sta zahtevala tudi združenje CRIA in zbornica CCCMC ter to zahtevo ponovila po dokončnem razkritju.
They also relate to a different period in time.
Komisija je to zahtevo zavrnila, saj razkritje kazalnikov škode brez ponderiranja ne bi izražalo resničnega položaja industrije Unije, saj ni mogoče vzorčiti toliko MSP, kot bi bilo potrebno, da bi se zajel njihov dejanski pomen med proizvajalci Unije.
Therefore, it is not possible to transpose the evolution of the complainants' sales volume to the Union industry.
Cene in dejavniki, ki vplivajo na cene
As explained in recitals (718) to (722), the Commission considered that the existence of material injury must be determined with regard to the product concerned and the Union industry as a whole, and not only for certain parts of it.
Povprečje prodajnih cen na enoto vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije za nepovezane stranke v Uniji se je v obravnavanem obdobju gibalo na naslednji način:
Therefore, the Commission did not examine the trends in isolation, namely per tier, since it followed an aggregated approach.
Preglednica 9
Growth
Prodajne cene v Uniji in proizvodni stroški
The Union consumption increased by 6,1 % during the period considered.
Vir: preverjeni izpolnjeni vprašalniki vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije.
The sales volumes of the Union industry decreased by 1,7 % in spite of the growing consumption, which resulted in the Union industry losing market share.
Povprečna prodajna cena na enoto v Uniji (v EUR/kos)
The market share of the imports from the country concerned increased during the period considered (by more than 4 percentage points).
Povprečni stroški proizvodnje (v EUR/kos)
The Giti Group claimed that the Union consumption had to be analysed in value instead of in volume.
Povprečna prodajna cena na enoto se je znižala za 19 EUR, medtem ko so se stroški na enoto v istem obdobju znižali za 12 EUR.
On this basis, Union consumption decreased by 5 % in value, and only started to slowly increase between 2016 and the Investigation Period.
To pomeni, da so se v obravnavanem obdobju cene znižale za 8 %, stroški pa za 6 %.
The Union consumption gave a snap-shot of the number of tyres available on the Union market at a given moment.
V obdobju preiskave so se proizvodni stroški v primerjavi z letom 2016 povečali, kar se ni moglo v celoti odražati v prodajni ceni.
Union consumption is customarily calculated in volume precisely to avoid that the pricing behaviour of the market players may affect the trends over the period considered.
Ločena analiza na podlagi iste metodologije, kot je opisana, je bila izvedena za vse tri razrede.
Employment and productivity
V prvem razredu se je povprečna prodajna cena na enoto znižala za 25 EUR, medtem ko so se stroški na enoto v istem obdobju znižali za 19 EUR.
Productivity was recalculated based on the revised Union production figures as explained in recital (726).
V obravnavanem obdobju so se prodajna cena na enoto in stroški na enoto znižali za 9 %.
Therefore, the employment and productivity developed over the period considered as follows:

V drugem razredu se je povprečna prodajna cena na enoto znižala za 27 EUR, medtem ko so se stroški na enoto v istem obdobju znižali za 17 EUR.
Number of employees
To pomeni, da se je v obravnavanem obdobju povprečna cena znižala za 12 %, stroški pa za 9 %.
Productivity (unit/employee)
Preglednica 11
There were over 4257 direct jobs lost over the period considered and affecting both SMEs where at least 85 producers located throughout the Union have stopped production and the large companies which have shut down several plants.
Prodajne cene v Uniji in proizvodni stroški – drugi razred
After the disclosure of the Information Document, the Italian association of retreaders (‘AIRP’) claimed that the retreading sector in the Union accounts for around 13000 jobs for production and distribution.
Povprečna prodajna cena na enoto v Uniji na celotnem trgu (v EUR/kos)
Retreading activity is a rather labour intensive activity and a retreaded tyre supports 3 to 4 times the number of jobs of a new tyre.
V tretjem razredu se je povprečna prodajna cena na enoto znižala za 9 EUR, medtem ko so se stroški na enoto v istem obdobju zvišali za 2 EUR.
According to AIRP, several companies associated are currently reducing personnel or making a massive use of unemployment insurance funds.
To pomeni, da se je v obravnavanem obdobju povprečna cena znižala za 5 %, stroški pa so se zvišali za 1 %.
The China National Tire Group and Pirelli stated that the employment, for which the Commission found a decrease of 11 % exclusively relates to the retreading industry.
Preglednica 12
The development of productivity can instead be explained by the fact that the Union industry has recently gone through a period of restructuring and rationalisation.
Prodajne cene v Uniji in proizvodni stroški – tretji razred
The statement regarding the decrease in employment is factually incorrect, since around half of it is from large manufacturers.
Združenje CRIA in zbornica CCCMC sta Komisijo pozvala, naj pojasni, ali so se pri določitvi kazalnikov škode upoštevale transferne cene med povezanimi družbami.
Heuver requested that the names of the 85 SMEs mentioned in recital (809) should be disclosed.
Komisija je pojasnila, da kadar so bila v prodajo vključena povezana podjetja, so morali vzorčeni proizvajalci predložiti podatke o prodaji prvim neodvisnim strankam.
The Commission had found that there were at least 85 producers that stopped production based on the list of customers that tread suppliers had provided in this investigation.
Kar zadeva nakupe surovin prek povezanih družb, je Komisija proučila politiko transfernih cen, zaradi tega pa se niso izvedle nobene prilagoditve.
The Commission granted confidential treatment to the identity of the customers and the volume of sales per customers since this is sensitive business information.
Stroški dela
Moreover, interested parties are not requested to provide a summary for this type of document.
Povprečni stroški dela vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije so se v obravnavanem obdobju gibali na naslednji način:
The tread suppliers provided a summary of their submissions, which can be found in the open file.
Preglednica 13
The Commission therefore concluded that the parties had sufficient information to exercise their rights of defence.
Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega
The CRIA and the CCCMC claimed that the Commission's assumption that all cold process sales are made by SMEs is erroneous as many large companies are using the cold process retreading methodology.
Vir: preverjeni izpolnjeni vprašalniki vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije.
They concluded that the resulting estimation of employment and productivity were therefore unreliable.
Povprečni stroški dela na zaposlenega (v EUR)
As mentioned in recital (708), the Commission found that the production of large companies using the cold process is rather limited and cannot as such dismiss the estimation made by the Commission regarding the employment and productivity.
Povprečni stroški dela so se v obravnavanem obdobju zvišali za 6 %.
Moreover, the productivity relates mostly to the type of production (namely retreading or new).
Zaloge
In addition, the CRIA and the CCCMC claimed that the list of customers provided by one tread supplier show that one customer was mentioned inactive while its financial statements lodged to the local authorities showed that the company was still active in 2017.
Ravni zalog vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije so se v obravnavanem obdobju gibale na naslednji način:
The Commission in its Note for the file explained that the list was built by aggregating the information on sales provided by eight tread suppliers.
Preglednica 14
For the purposes of the investigation a retreader was considered as having stopped production when it did not purchase treads any longer.
Končne zaloge (Indeks 2014 = 100)
Therefore, it is not possible to conclude positively on whether a retreader is active or inactive solely on the basis of the list of unique supplier and/or on the basis of filed financial statements.
Končne zaloge kot delež proizvodnje
Moreover, while it is true that the company mentioned by the CCCMC had not closed down, it confirmed to the Commission that it does not operate any longer its retreading workshop.
Zaloge so se v obravnavanem obdobju povečale za 44 % in dosegle približno 9 % letne proizvodnje.
Therefore, the Commission continued to use the list as established.
Ta položaj negativno vpliva na finančni položaj vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije.
Magnitude of the amounts of subsidisation
Skupina China National Tire Group in družba Pirelli sta trdili, da bi morala Komisija poleg analize celotne industrije razmisliti o analizi razlik med novimi in protektiranimi pnevmatikami ali med različnimi kategorijami pnevmatik.
All subsidy amounts were significantly above the de minimis level.
Trdili sta, da se v skladu s pritožbo zaloge pnevmatik prvega in drugega razreda niso povečale.
The impact of the magnitude of the actual subsidy amounts on the Union industry was substantial, given the volume and prices of imports from the country concerned.
Nasprotno, v obdobju 2013–2016 so se zmanjšale za 15 % oziroma 21 %.
This is the first anti-subsidy investigation regarding the product concerned in the Union.
Je pa pritožnik poročal o 17-odstotnem povečanju zalog pnevmatik tretjega razreda.
Therefore, no data were available to assess the effects of possible past subsidy.
Po njunem mnenju se sporočeno povečanje zalog nanaša le na industrijo protektiranja.
Microeconomic indicators
Poleg tega je mogoče nihanje zalog pojasniti z različnimi dejavniki.
The Giti Group requested the Commission to also disclose the evolution in the microeconomic factors without the weighting adopted by the Commission to allow it to analyse whether such unmanipulated data would result in a different injury picture.
Zaloge se lahko na primer povečajo zaradi večje prodaje na podlagi predvidenih naročil.
Also the CRIA and the CCCMC made the same claim and reiterated it after the final disclosure.
Natančneje, skupina Prometeon Tyre Group S.r.l. je evidentirala povečanje zalog zaradi več dejavnikov, ki so bili vsi povezani z evropsko gospodarsko krizo.
The Commission rejected that claim, as disclosing the injury indicators without the weighting would not reflect the real situation of the Union industry given that it is not possible to sample as many SMEs as it would be necessary to reflect their real weight among the Union producers.
Proizvodnja pnevmatik je tesno povezana s prevozom, prevoz pa je odvisen zlasti od trgovine na splošno.
Prices and factors affecting prices
Zaradi trgovinske krize se opravi manj prevozov, kar logično pomeni zmanjšanje prodaje pnevmatik.
The average unit sales prices of the sampled Union producers to unrelated customers in the Union developed over the period considered as follows:
Na podlagi tega je bila ta trditev zavrnjena.

Komisija je določila dobičkonosnost vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije tako, da je neto dobiček pred obdavčitvijo pri prodaji podobnega izdelka nepovezanim strankam v Uniji izrazila kot odstotek prihodkov od navedene prodaje.
Sales prices in the Union and Cost of production — Tier 1
Splošna dobičkonosnost se je zmanjšala s 15,6 % v letu 2014 na 13,7 % v obdobju preiskave.
In tier 2, the average unit selling price decreased by 27 EUR while unit costs decreased by 17 EUR over the same period.
To se je izračunalo na podlagi ponderja vsakega razreda pri prodaji, kakor je pojasnjeno v uvodnih izjavah 692 in 693.
This corresponds to a decrease of the average price by 12 % over the period considered while the costs decreased by 9 %.
Zmanjšanje dobičkonosnosti za 1,9 odstotne točke je posledica tega, da so se cene (– 8 %) znižale bolj kot stroški (– 6 %).

The CRIA and the CCCMC requested the Commission to clarify whether transfer prices between related companies had been considered when establishing the injury indicators.

Stocks have increased by 44 % over the period considered and reached around 9 % of the yearly production.
Tretji razred je v obdobju preiskave ustvarjal izgubo (– 0,4 %).
This situation has a negative impact on the financial situation of the sampled Union producers.
Izgube so bile zlasti izrazite za MSP (– 6,1 % v obdobju preiskave).
The China National Tire Group and Pirelli claimed that the Commission should consider analysing not only the overall industry but also the distinction between new and retreaded tyres or between different categories of tiers.
Dobičkonosnost za velika podjetja v tretjem razredu se je od leta 2014 do obdobja preiskave prepolovila z 10 % na 4,8 %.
They argued that according to the complaint, no increase in stock has taken place for tier 1 or 2 tyres.
V tretjem razredu se je neto denarni tok znatno zmanjšal, tj. za 62 %, medtem ko se je donosnost naložb zmanjšala s 7,6 % na 2,5 % v obravnavanem obdobju.
On the contrary, tier 1 and 2 stocks decreased by 15 % and 21 %, respectively, between 2013 and 2016.

Conversely, the complainant reported a 17 % stock increase for tier 3 tyres.
Dobičkonosnost, denarni tok, naložbe in donosnost naložb v tretjem razredu
For them, the reported increase in stocks relates only to the retreading industry.

Furthermore, stock fluctuations can be explained by various factors.
Kot je prikazano v preglednici 20, s spremenjenim ponderiranjem sklepi, ki temeljijo na trendih iz predhodne faze, ostajajo veljavni za tretji razred:
For instance, stock increases can be triggered by increased sales, which are made on anticipated orders.
Preglednica 20
Specifically, Prometeon Tyre Group S.r.l. recorded an increase in stock due to several factors, all related to the European economic crisis.
Dobičkonosnost prodaje v tretjem razredu nepovezanim strankam v Uniji (v % prihodka od prodaje)
Tyre production is strictly connected to transportation, and transportation depends mainly on trade in general.
Stopnja dobička iz preglednice 18 (v % prihodka od prodaje)
A trade crisis results in low transportation and this, logically, means fewer tyre sales.
Stopnja dobička s spremenjenim ponderiranjem (v % prihodka od prodaje)
The Commission first noted that the increase of the stocks of the sampled Union producers had occurred between 2016 and the investigation period.
V zvezi z naložbami sta skupina China National Tire Group in družba Pirelli trdili, da je preiskava v nasprotju s podatki, ki jih je navedel pritožnik.
Therefore, it was not directly concerned by the financial crisis of 2011.
Skupina Giti Group je trdila, da je dobičkonosnost industrije Unije kot celote podcenjena, ker je Komisija spreminjala podatke vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije, da bi povečala pomembnost podatkov za tretji razred.
Furthermore, the figures quoted by the interested parties only concerned the complainant and did not reflect the situation of the sampled Union producers.
Trdila je tudi, da je edini segment industrije z vse slabšimi (in nizkimi) stopnjami dobička segment pnevmatik tretjega razreda.
Thus drawing any conclusions from them cannot be considered representative of the Union industry for the investigation.
Vendar je ta segment trga predstavljal le 20 % celotne prodaje/potrošnje v Uniji.
On this basis, that claim was rejected.
Skupina China National Tire Group in družba Pirelli sta menili, da je industrija Unije na splošno zelo dobičkonosna, očitno pozitivna v segmentu pnevmatik prvega razreda in pozitivna v segmentu pnevmatik drugega razreda.
