Typically, this is a result of either payment of dividends or an overall loss for the year. So it can be a good thing or a bad thing. It comes down to what type of entity you are talking about. For a fortune 500 concern that is successful, you'll usually attribute that to dividends. However, with smaller companies, usually privately held, it will largely come down to a loss or an increase in shareholder distributions.As far as what happens next, there is usually a cycle that is hard to stop. Either the company lowers its dividend, which investors do not like, or it must regain profitability/decrease distributions to owners.If the smaller company is going through transition, this can rebound. You may want to look at cash flow in this situation. If they are rebounding and have positive operating cash flows, no worries. If not, expect more of the same. Also, our current economy has caused a dramatic effect on this number as well. Remember, most things wash out through retained earnings, so it can be a number of things based on the entity and it's market. Try to trace the decrease back to other accounts that may have decreased throughout the year. Possibly sales, distributions (an increase in), a large capacity increase, etc. If assets or liabilities increase, RE will decrease, so start with the big numbers on the balance sheet and go from there. Hope this helps.
