a. low and marketing expenses are high as companies prepare --- Correct
b. low and their marketing expenses are high as they prepare ---looks as if their and they stand for revenues which is absurd.
c. low with higher marketing expenses in preparation --- revenues seems to be having higher marketing expense; in addition, ‘higher than what’ is not made clear.
d. low, while marketing expenses are higher to prepare--- higher than what? In addition, there is no specific purpose to us the infinitive verbal ‘to prepare’
e. low, while their marketing expenses are higher in preparation ---'their' has no relevance as in B; in additions it looks as if the marketing expenses are in preparation. The companies are in preparation.
