Target exceeded. The FTC’s positive nonmerger results affected markets in which the total estimated volume of commerce was
approximately $11.7 billion, almost 1.5 times the targeted amount, as calculated using the volume of commerce of the current
fiscal year and the previous four years. During FY 2010, the FTC obtained positive results in six nonmerger matters, resulting
in the same number of consents, one of which was negotiated after the Commission issued an administrative compliant. As mentioned
under Performance Measure 2.1.5, the reason that the agency has exceeded the target by such a margin is in large part attributable
to one particular case, which involved Intel Corporation, the world’s leading computer chip maker, who was charged with illegally
using its dominant market position for a decade to stifle competition and strengthen its monopoly. Data Source: Estimates
of the volume of commerce associated with nonmerger actions are prepared by the lead attorney responsible for an individual
investigation, and subsequently subject to review by staff economists. The estimate is generated using the volume of commerce
for the affected markets using public sources and confidential data submitted by the parties during the course of the investigations
