(53) Monthly import statistics based on actual data provided by customs authorities in Member States under Article 14(6) of the basic Regulation.

(*1) Excluding imports of PET from Futura Polyesters Ltd, which are not covered by the countervailing measures.

(54) Given the fact that there are only two sampled Union producers, the relevant data in this section is provided in ranges.

(55) The price of PET is by around 90 % determined by the prices of the main raw material, i.e. purified terephthalic acid (PTA), which in turn fluctuates on the basis of prices of crude oil. This causes high volatility of the PET prices.

(56) Target profit of 7 % was established in the original investigation, see recital (349) (OJ L 199, 5.8.2000, p. 44).
