78Similarly, where financial aid granted by the public authorities strengthens the position of an undertaking in relation to its competitors, it falls within the scope of Article 92. It is clear from the case-law that the capacity of aid to strengthen the recipient's competitive position is assessed by reference to the advantage given to the recipient, and it is unnecessary to take account of the operating results of its competitors (see Philip Morris v Commission, cited above, paragraphs 10 and 11, and Belgium v Commission, cited above, paragraphs 22 and 23).
