Fully diluted shares outstanding can not decrease unless shares are repurchased.
Fully diluted shares include employee stock option and security conversion, such conversion/exercise is at the option of the holder; the employee can choose not to exercise option and security holder can decide not to convert security to shares, Therefore, Diluted shares can decrease at the discretion of the option holder.
The CAPEX forecast is too low.
The formula for Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio is Net Revenue / Average Net Fixed Assets(Fixed Asset - Accumulated Depreciation). The ratio would rise under 2 circumstances i.e. the numerator increases or the denominator decreases. The capital expenditure forecast would be low resulting in a lower Average Total assets, resulting in rapid increase of Asset Turnover Ratio.
statement of shareholders equity
Statement of shareholder's equity shows the changes to the Equity component of the Balance Sheet.
The current ratio will decrease and the debt ratio will increase.
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities - if there is a decrease in Current Asset the ratio will decrease because of the reduced numerator. 200/100 = 2 & 150/100 = 1.5.
Debt Ratio = Liabilities / Assets - if there is decrease in inventory, it will result in reduced Assets and therefore denominator, resulting in increase in ratio. 100/100 = 1 & 200/100 = 2.
