At the same time 23 points of market share were lost, of which 18 % went to Chinese imports having undercut Union industry's prices by 16 % to 43 % in the investigation period.
Trend v proizvodnji se je nato močno razlikoval in bolj oddaljil od splošnega razvoja trga, pri čemer se je proizvodnja med letom 2015 in obdobjem preiskave povečala za 12 odstotnih točk, poraba pa za 54 odstotnih točk.
The pressure on sales was felt in relation to production, stocks, capacity, capacity utilisation, and employment levels.
Kljub temu je bila proizvodnja razen leta 2014 sistematično višja od prodaje, zaradi česar so se zaloge močno povečale.
Production increased broadly at the same rate as consumption between 2014 and 2015 (+ 17 % and + 20 % respectively).
Proizvodna zmogljivost, ki se je do leta 2016 povečevala skladno s potrošnjo, se je zmanjšala, da bi se preprečilo znižanje stopnje izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti, ki se je med letoma 2014 in 2016 znižala za 9 odstotnih točk.
However, after 2015, the Union industry was forced to reassess its sales expectations.
Med letom 2016 in obdobjem preiskave se je na splošno proizvodnja zmanjševala, zaloge so bile večje kot pred prodajno sezono, zmogljivost se je zmanjšala, zaposlovanje se je ustavilo, uvoz iz LRK pa se je povečal za 155 odstotnih točk.
The trend in production then diverged markedly and increasingly from the general development of the market, with production increasing by 12 percentage points and consumption by 54 percentage points between 2015 and the investigation period.
Pritisk na cene in nezmožnost, da se izkoristijo ekonomije obsega na trgu v vzponu, sta dobičkonosnost industrije Unije celotno obravnavano obdobje ohranjala na nizkih ravneh.
Nevertheless, except in 2014, production was systematically higher than sales, leading to a significant increase in stocks.
Ta nizka raven dobička in sprememba zalog sta vodila v nizke denarne tokove iz poslovanja, ki so bili nižji od ravni naložb, izvedenih v obravnavanem obdobju, in ustvarila dodaten element ranljivosti za to denarno intenzivno panogo, močno odvisno od likvidnosti, ki jo zagotovijo banke.
Production capacity, which had increased in line with consumption until 2016, was reduced to stem the deterioration of the capacity utilisation rate which lost 9 percentage points between 2014 and 2016.
V obdobju preiskave so šli v stečaj štirje proizvajalci.
Between 2016 and the investigation period, overall, production declined, stocks were higher after than before the selling season, capacity was reduced, employment stalled while imports from the PRC increased by 155 percentage points.
Kazalniki škode za rast, tržni delež, zmogljivost, izkoriščenost zmogljivosti, zaloge, stopnje dobička, denarne tokove in zmožnost zbiranja kapitala so se razvijali negativno.
The pressure on prices and the inability to seize economies of scale in a nascent market kept the profitability of the Union industry at depressed levels throughout the period considered.
Drugi kazalniki niso postali negativni le zaradi močne rasti povpraševanja.
This low level of profit and the variation of stocks led to low operating cash flows which were below the level of investment incurred during the period considered and created an additional element of vulnerability for this cash-intensive business strongly dependent on the liquidity provided by banks.
Ob upoštevanju navedenega je Komisija v tej fazi sklenila, da je industrija Unije utrpela znatno škodo v smislu člena 3(5) osnovne uredbe.
Four producers went into bankruptcy during the investigation period.
VZROČNA ZVEZA
The injury indicators for growth, market share, capacity, capacity utilisation, stocks, profit margins, cash flows, and ability to raise capital developed negatively.
Komisija je v skladu s členom 3(6) osnovne uredbe proučila, ali je dampinški uvoz iz LRK povzročil znatno škodo industriji Unije.
It was only due to the strong underlying growth in demand that other indicators did not also turn negative.
V skladu s členom 3(7) osnovne uredbe je proučila, ali bi tudi drugi znani dejavniki lahko hkrati povzročali škodo industriji Unije.
On the basis of the above, the Commission concluded at this stage that the Union industry suffered material injury within the meaning of Article 3(5) of the basic Regulation.
Zagotovila je, da se morebitna škoda, ki so jo povzročili drugi dejavniki in ne dampinški uvoz iz LRK, ni pripisala temu dampinškemu uvozu.
CAUSATION
Ti dejavniki so: uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav, izvoz proizvajalcev Unije ter domnevni učinek naložb in povečanje zmogljivosti.
In accordance with Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether the dumped imports from the PRC caused material injury to the Union industry.
Učinki dampinškega uvoza
In accordance with Article 3(7) of the basic Regulation, the Commission also examined whether other known factors could at the same time have injured the Union industry.
Cene dampinškega uvoza iz LRK so v obdobju preiskave občutno nelojalno nižale prodajne cene industrije Unije, saj so stopnje nelojalnega nižanja prodajnih cen znašale od 16,2 % do 43,2 %.
The Commission ensured that any possible injury caused by factors other than the dumped imports from the PRC was not attributed to the dumped imports.
V obravnavanem obdobju se je tržni delež industrije Unije na trgu, ki je zrasel za 74 %, zmanjšal za 23 odstotnih točk, medtem ko se je uvoz iz LRK povečal za 250 %, tržni delež pa za 17 odstotnih točk ter z 18 % zrasel na 35 %.
These factors are: imports from other third countries, export sales performance of the Union producers, and an alleged impact of investment and expansion of capacities.
Zaradi pritiska dampinškega uvoza iz LRK so bili dobiček in denarni tokovi na nizkih ravneh.
Effects of the dumped imports
Učinki drugih dejavnikov
Prices of dumped imports from the PRC significantly undercut Union industry prices during the investigation period with undercutting margins ranging from 16,2 % to 43,2 %.
Uvoz iz tretjih držav
During the period considered, the Union Industry lost 23 points of market share in a market growing by 74 % while imports from the PRC increased by 250 % and gained 17 points of market share from 18 % to 35 %.
Obseg uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav se je v obravnavanem obdobju gibal, kot sledi.
The pressure on prices by dumped imports from the PRC kept profits and cash flows at depressed levels.

Effects of other factors
Vir: Eurostat.
The volume of imports from other third countries developed over the period considered as follows:
Tajvan
Source: Eurostat.
Povprečna cena (v EUR)
Country
Švica
Taiwan
Japonska
Volume (pieces)
Vse tretje države skupaj, razen LRK
Average price (EUR)
Obseg uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav razen LRK se je močno razvil, saj se je njegov tržni delež s 7 % leta 2014 (77000 kosov) povečal na 12 % (240000 kosov) v obdobju preiskave.
Vietnam
Vendar pa se je povečevanje upočasnilo, ko so kitajski izvozniki okrepili svojo dejavnost po letu 2015.
Switzerland
Ta uvoz je bil skoraj izključno iz Tajvana in Vietnama.
Japan
Kljub temu je Komisija ugotovila, da se je po letu 2015 povečevanje uvoza iz Vietnama upočasnilo, kar je mogoče pojasniti z večjo in naraščajočo razliko v cenah v primerjavi s kitajskim uvozom.
Total of all third countries except the PRC
Podobno se je uvoz iz Tajvana stalno povečeval tudi ob enako velikem zvišanju cen, kar kaže, da je bil ta uvoz morda usmerjen v segment višjega cenovnega razreda trga.
The volume of imports from third countries other than the PRC developed strongly, increasing its market share from 7 % in 2014 (77000 pieces) to 12 % (240000 in the investigation period).
Cene uvoza iz Tajvana in Vietnama so bile na splošno nižje od cen industrije Unije.
Yet, the pace of increase decelerated when Chinese exporters intensified their activity after 2015.
Vendar Komisija glede na širok razpon cen električnih koles ne more skleniti, da je ta uvoz nelojalno nižal prodajne cene industrije Unije na enaki osnovi.
These imports originated almost exclusively from Taiwan and Vietnam.
Poleg tega se je njegova povprečna cena zvišala, povprečna cena uvoza iz LRK pa se je znižala.
Nevertheless, after 2015, the Commission observed a slower increase of imports from Vietnam, which may be explained by the significant and growing price difference with Chinese imports.
Razlika v ceni uvoza iz Vietnama in ceno industrije Unije je bila kljub temu velika in ni mogoče izključiti, da je ta uvoz nekoliko prispeval k škodi.
Likewise, the continued progression of imports from Taiwan occurred on the back of an equally significant increase in prices, which suggests that these imports may have been displaced towards the high end of the market.
Vendar uvoz iz Vietnama po letu 2015 ni več pridobival tržnega deleža in njegov obseg je ostal majhen.
Imports from Taiwan and Vietnam had on average lower prices than the Union Industry.
Zato uvoz iz vseh držav razen LRK ni zmanjšal vzročne zveze med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, ter ni mogel imeti več kot majhnega učinka na škodo.
However, given the wide range of prices of electric bicycles, the Commission cannot conclude that these imports undercut Union Industry's prices on a like-for-like basis.
Izvoz industrije Unije
In addition, their average prices increased while the average prices of imports from the PRC decreased.
Obseg izvoza štirih vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije se je v obravnavanem obdobju gibal, kot sledi.
The difference between the prices of imports of Vietnam and of the Union's Industry's was nevertheless significant and it cannot be excluded that they marginally contributed to the injury.
Preglednica 13
However, imports from Vietnam ceased to win market share after 2015 and their volumes remained small.
Izvoz vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije
Consequently, the imports from all counties other the PRC did not attenuate the causal link between the dumped imports from the PRC and the injury suffered by the Union industry, and could not have more than a marginal impact on injury.
Vir: Vzorčeni proizvajalci Unije.
The volume of exports of the four sampled Union producers developed over the period considered as follows:
Izvoz vzorčenih proizvajalcev Unije v države zunaj Unije je bil zanemarljiv (3 % celotnega obsega prodaje v obravnavanem obdobju).
Table 13
Tudi ob upoštevanju znižanja povprečne cene izvoz industrije Unije ni mogel biti vzrok za škodo.
Export performance of the sampled Union producers
Naložbe in povečanje zmogljivosti
Source: Sampled Union producers.
Zbornica CCCME je trdila, da so naložbe v zmogljivost leta 2016 povzročile presežek proizvodnih zmogljivosti, ki presega katera koli realna pričakovanja glede prodaje, kar je vodilo v precejšnje zmanjšanje izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti in močno vplivalo na dobičkonosnost.
Export volume (pieces)
Komisija je ta argument zavrnila.
Even considering the decrease in the average price, the export performance of the Union industry cannot have been a cause of injury.
Industrija Unije je zaradi nepoštenega pritiska dampinškega kitajskega uvoza nato med letom 2016 in obdobjem preiskave svojo proizvodno zmogljivost zmanjšala za več kot 150000 kosov, in sicer kljub nadaljnji rasti trga za več kot 300000 kosov.
Investment and expansion of capacities
Drugič, Komisija je ugotovila, da raven naložb v osnovna sredstva ni bila visoka.
The CCCME claimed that the investment in capacity resulted in 2016 in a surplus of production capacity beyond any realistic sales expectations which had the effects of both significantly reducing capacity utilisation and severely impacting profitability.
Nasprotno, v obravnavanem obdobju je bila nižja od 2 % celotnega prihodka od prodaje.
The Commission rejected this argument.
Industrija Unije je preoblikovala obstoječe proizvodne linije, zato povečanje zmogljivosti ni bilo pomemben dejavnik za naložbe v osnovna sredstva.
Firstly, it cannot be said that the investment in capacity was beyond any realistic sales expectations.
Tretjič, naložbe v osnovna sredstva se niso upoštevale pri dobičkonosnosti (razen pri amortizaciji, ki se ni bistveno povečala) ali denarnih tokovih (ki so na ravni poslovanja).
As shown in Table 5 above, production capacity increased by 300000 pieces between 2015 and 2016.
Zato ne bi bilo pravilno, če bi se kateri od teh kazalnikov razlagal ob upoštevanju ravni naložb.
This was fully in line with the growth in consumption between 2015 and 2016, which was equally 300000 pieces as shown in Table 2 above.
Nazadnje, kazalniki Komisije so pokazali, da so se stroški proizvodnje povečali v skladu s prodajnimi cenami.
Due to unfair pressure by dumped Chinese imports, the Union industry subsequently reduced their production capacity between 2016 and the investigation period by more than 150000 pieces, despite a further market growth of more than 300000 pieces.
Zato ni bilo mogoče trditi, da je povečanje zmogljivosti nesorazmerno vplivalo na stroške proizvodnje.
Secondly, the Commission noted that the level of capital expenditure was not high.
Sklep o vzročni zvezi
To the contrary, it stood below 2 % of total turnover over the period considered.
Komisija je začasno določila vzročno zvezo med škodo, ki so jo utrpeli proizvajalci Unije, in dampinškim uvozom iz LRK.
The Union Industry converted existing production lines and the increase of capacity was therefore not a major driver of capital expenditures.
Opredelila je učinke vseh znanih dejavnikov na položaj industrije Unije in jih ločila od škodljivih učinkov dampinškega uvoza.
Thirdly, capital expenditures were not taken into account in profitability (except for depreciation and amortisation which did not increase materially) or cash flows (which are at operating level).
Začasno je bilo ugotovljeno, da drugi opredeljeni dejavniki, kot so uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav, izvoz proizvajalcev Unije, domnevni učinek naložb in povečanje zmogljivosti, ne prekinejo vzročne zveze, tudi če se upošteva njihov morebitni skupni učinek.
It was therefore inaccurate to interpret any of these indicators in light of the level of investments.
Na podlagi navedenega je Komisija v tej fazi sklenila, da je znatna škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, posledica dampinškega uvoza iz LRK ter da drugi posamično ali skupaj upoštevani dejavniki niso zmanjšali vzročne zveze med škodo in dampinškim uvozom.
Finally, the Commission's indicators showed that the cost of production increased in line with sales prices.
INTERES UNIJE
As a result, it could not be argued that the increase in capacity had a disproportionate impact on cost of production.
Komisija je v skladu s členom 21 osnovne uredbe proučila, ali bi lahko kljub ugotovitvi o škodljivem dampingu jasno sklenila, da sprejetje ukrepov v tem primeru ni v interesu Unije.
Conclusion on causation
Določitev interesa Unije je temeljila na oceni vseh različnih zadevnih interesov, vključno z interesi industrije Unije, uvoznikov in uporabnikov.
The Commission provisionally established a causal link between the injury suffered by the Union producers and the dumped imports from the PRC.
Interes dobaviteljev
The Commission distinguished and separated the effects of all known factors on the situation of the Union industry from the injurious effects of the dumped imports.
Konfederacija CONEBI, ki povezuje nacionalna združenja, ki predstavljajo proizvajalce koles in dobavitelje delov, je podprla uvedbo ukrepov.
The other identified factors such as imports from other third countries, export sales performance of the Union producers, and an alleged impact of investment and expansion in capacity were provisionally not found to attenuate the causal link, even considering their possible combined effect.
Vendar se v tej preiskavi ni opredelil noben posamezen dobavitelj.
On the basis of the above, the Commission concluded at this stage that the material injury to the Union industry was caused by the dumped imports from the PRC and the other factors, considered individually or collectively, did not attenuate the causal link between the injury and the dumped imports.
Glede na podatke, ki jih je predložila konfederacija CONEBI, dele za kolesa (za običajna in električna kolesa) proizvaja 424 družb v 19 državah članicah, ki imajo skoraj 21000 zaposlenih ter so leta 2016 v proizvodnjo in inovacije vložile več kot 660 milijonov EUR.
UNION INTEREST
Komisija je začasno sklenila, da bi bila uvedba protidampinške dajatve v interesu dobaviteljev industrije Unije.
The determination of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, including those of the Union industry, importers and users.
Industrijo Unije sestavljajo tako velika kot tudi mala in srednja podjetja (MSP), v obravnavanem obdobju pa je v 12 državah članicah neposredno zaposlovala približno 3600 ljudi.
Interest of suppliers
Potrošnja električnih koles poleg tega predstavlja le majhen delež celotnega trga koles, vendar je preusmeritev povpraševanja z običajnih na električna kolesa hitra ter pomeni strukturni izziv za ohranitev ravni dejavnosti, dodane vrednosti in delovnih mest v celotni industriji koles.
CONEBI, which brings together national associations representing both bicycles manufacturers and parts suppliers, supported the imposition of measures.
Kot je navedeno v oddelku 4.4.4, se je glede na analizo razvoja kazalnikov škode od začetka obravnavanega obdobja položaj celotne industrije Unije poslabšal, dampinški uvoz pa je nanjo vplival negativno.
However, no supplier individually took position in this investigation.
Komisija pričakuje, da se bo z uvedbo začasne protidampinške dajatve vsem proizvajalcem omogočilo delovanje na trgu Unije v poštenih tržnih razmerah.
According to figures submitted by CONEBI, the bicycle parts (for both conventional and electric bicycles) are manufactured by 424 companies in 19 Members States, employing nearly 21000 staff, who invested more than EUR 660 millions in manufacturing and innovation in 2016.
Zelo verjetno je, da se bo brez ukrepov gospodarski in finančni položaj industrije Unije še poslabšal.
The Commission provisionally concluded that the imposition of an anti-dumping duty would be in the interest of the suppliers of the Union Industry.
Komisija je zato začasno sklenila, da bi bila uvedba protidampinške dajatve v interesu industrije Unije.
Interest of the Union industry
Interes nepovezanih uvoznikov
The Union industry is composed of large as well as small and medium-sized companies and employed directly around 3600 employees spread across twelve Member States during the period considered.
Združenje CEIEB je nasprotovalo uvedbi ukrepov.
Moreover, while the consumption of electric bicycles still represents a small portion of the overall bicycle market, the shift in demand from conventional bicycles to electric bicycles is rapid and poses a structural challenge to maintain the level of activity, value-added and jobs of the entire bicycle industry.
Predstavljalo je 21 uvoznikov iz sedmih držav članic.
As demonstrated in section 4.4.4 above, when analysing the development of the injury indicators since the beginning of the period considered, the whole Union industry experienced a deterioration of its situation and was negatively affected by the dumped imports.
V vzorčenju je sodelovalo enajst članov združenja CEIEB.
The Commission expects that the imposition of a provisional anti-dumping duty will allow all producers to operate under conditions of fair trade on the Union market.
Poleg tega sta dve družbi, ki nista članici tega združenja, prav tako izrazili svoje nestrinjanje z uvedbo protidampinških ukrepov.
In the absence of measures, a further deterioration of the Union industry's economic and financial situation is very likely.
Trinajst družb, za katere je znan obseg uvoza, je v obdobju preiskave predstavljalo 10 % celotnega uvoza iz LRK.
The Commission therefore provisionally concluded that the imposition of an anti-dumping duty would be in the interest of the Union industry.
Iz predložitev vzorčenih uvoznikov je razvidno, da bo uvedba ukrepov verjetno vsaj začasno povzročila motnje v njihovih dobavnih verigah in ogrozila njihov finančni položaj, če povečanih stroškov v zvezi z dajatvijo ne bi mogli prenesti na svoje stranke.
Interest of unrelated importers
Iz predložitev vzorčenih uvoznikov je razvidno tudi, da so lahko največji uvozniki pridobivali ustrezna električna kolesa in/ali so imeli morebitne druge vire oskrbe zunaj LRK, vključno z industrijo Unije.
The CEIEB came forward to oppose the imposition of measures.
Ti uvozniki zaposlujejo večino zaposlenih iz uvodne izjave 236.
It represented twenty-one importers from seven Member States.
Statistični podatki o uvozu kažejo, da sta Vietnam in Tajvan evropskim uvoznikom zagotovila precejšnje količine električnih vozil.
Eleven of the members of the CEIEB had participated in the sampling exercise.
Prav tako je verjetno, da bi lahko uvoznike morda oskrbovale druge države, ki imajo dobro razvito proizvodnjo običajnih koles.
In addition, two companies outside of this collective also expressed their disagreement with the imposition of anti-dumping measures.
V zvezi s tem Komisija ugotavlja, da se z uvedbo dajatev na uvoz običajnih koles iz LRK trg Unije ni zaprl za uvoz, ampak se je nasprotno povečalo število držav, ki so ga oskrbovale z običajnimi kolesi.
Altogether, the thirteen companies for whom the volume of imports is known represented 10 % of the total imports from the PRC in the investigation period.
Nasprotno, na velikih trgih brez ukrepov za običajna kolesa iz LRK, kot so Združene države Amerika in Japonska, je uvoz predstavljal 99 % oziroma 90 % trga, večina tega uvoza pa je bila iz LRK.
The submissions made by sampled importers showed that the imposition of duties was likely to disrupt at least temporarily their supply chains and threaten their financial position if they were not able to pass on the increased costs related to the duty to their customers.
Komisija je ugotovila, da industrija koles zajema več kot 450 proizvajalcev, od katerih jih trenutno le 37 proizvaja električna kolesa.
The submissions made by the sampled importers also showed that the largest importers had been able to source suitable electric bicycles and/or had potential alternative sources of supply outside the PRC, including the Union industry.
Poleg tega sedanji proizvajalci električnih koles dobavljajo že široko paleto električnih koles in lahko v običajnih tržnih pogojih povečajo svoje proizvodne zmogljivosti.
These importers employ most of the employees referred to in recital 236.
Čeprav bi lahko uvedba dajatev škodljivo vplivala na številne, zlasti male uvoznike, bi se lahko negativni vpliv uvedbe dajatev zmanjšal z razpoložljivostjo pridobivanja ustreznih koles od industrije Unije, iz drugih tretjih držav in iz LRK po poštenih cenah.
The import statistics show that Vietnam and Taiwan provided significant volumes of electric bicycles to European importers.
Komisija je zato sklenila, da uvedba dajatev ni v interesu uvoznikov, vendar pa verjetni negativni vpliv na uvoznike ne prevlada nad pozitivnim vplivom ukrepov na industrijo Unije.
It is also likely that other countries which are well positioned in the manufacturing of conventional bicycles could potentially supply importers.
Interes uporabnikov
In this regard, the Commission notes that the imposition of duties on imports of conventional bicycles from the PRC did not have the effect to close the Union market to imports and on the contrary expanded the number of countries supplying conventional bicycles.
V tej preiskavi se je javila Evropska kolesarska zveza (v nadaljnjem besedilu: zveza ECF).
On the contrary, in large markets without measures on conventional bicycles from the PRC such as the United States and Japan, imports represented respectively 99 % and 90 % of the market and most of these imports came from the PRC.
Zveza ECF predstavlja združenja in zveze kolesarjev.
The Commission noted that the bicycle industry consists of more than 450 producers, of which only 37 currently manufacture electric bicycles.
Zveza ECF je trdila, da cena ni odločilni dejavnik pri tem, koliko ljudje kolesarijo, ter predložila dokaze, da so v državah, v katerih ljudje pogosteje kolesarijo, kolesa in električna kolesa dražja.
