LOST SALES AND LOST REVENUE
In the preliminary phase of the investigation, the Commission requested that U.S.
producers of quartz surface products identify purchasers where they experienced instances of
lost sales or revenue due to competition from imports of quartz surface products from China
during 2015‐17. One U.S. producer (***) submitted lost sales and lost revenue allegations and
identified 14 firms where it lost sales or revenue (13 lost sales allegations and 1 lost revenue
allegation). In the final phase of these investigations, four of 18 responding U.S. producers
reported that they had to reduce prices, two reported that they had to roll back announced
price increases, and four of 19 responding U.S. producers reported that they had lost sales.
