64On that point, it should be noted that, when analysing the existence of a single economic entity among a number of companies forming part of a group, the Community judicature has examined whether the parent company was able to influence pricing policy (see, to that effect, Case 48/69 ICI v Commission [1972] ECR 619, paragraph 137, and Case 52/69 Geigy v Commission [1972] ECR 787, paragraph 45), production and distribution activities (see, to that effect, Joined Cases 6/73 and 7/73 Commercial Solvents v Commission [1974] ECR 223, paragraphs 37 and 39 to 41), sales objectives, gross margins, sales costs, cash flow, stocks and marketing (Case T-102/92 Viho v Commission [1995] ECR II-17, paragraph 48). However, it cannot be inferred that it is only those aspects that are covered by the concept of the business policy of a subsidiary for the purposes of the application of Articles 81 EC and 82 EC with respect to the parent company.
