In that case, the actual impact of the infringement is only one among a number of factors which, if it can be measured, may allow the Commission to increase the starting amount of the fine beyond the minimum likely amount of EUR 20 million (Case C-534/07 P Prym and Prym Consumer v Commission [2009] ECR I-7415, paragraph 75).
