(3) Deleted as a business secret. The combined turnover of Pilkington, the San Faustin Group and SIV exceed ECU 5 000 million. (4) The market shares presented by the parties are based on the production of raw float glass (a large part of which is processed internally by the float glass producers) and therefore include captive production. (5) Exceeding 50 %. (6) Imports have been obtained from the Comext data base. (7) On the one hand, the calculation basis understates the market share of the above companies to the extent that it has not been possible to identify all relevant imports, e.g. imports by PPG and ASF (Asahi/Glaverbel) from the United States. On the other hand, strictly speaking, exports from the Community should be excluded. Nevertheless, the difference is not considered material to the assessment. (8) On the grounds of confidentiality, market shares for other parties are indicated as a range. (9) In the interests of business secrecy, market shares have been indicated as a range. (10) For technical reasons, there are different ways of calculating theoretical capacity utilization. In general, a factor to reflect lost output due to cold repairs, hot repairs, production mix changes (tint and thickness), quality/breakage losses on line (incl. edge and cutting loss), warehouse loss, has to be applied to the theoretical melt capacity.
