Answer:

a. demand for existing shares of the stock and the price will both fall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The stock price is formed by the interaction of supply and demand of companies's shares and when a news like this is released is expected that the future cashflows of that company will drop. Being share buyers rational actors, the demand for the company's shares will drop, therefore the price of the company will drop as well.
