Oh, most certainly it would affect there cap. That's why they won't expense them. There is some legitimacy to their arguments that Black Sholes isn't a good way to measure the cost, but bottom line, they fear getting their stock price chopped in half should they expense them. A good solution is to cut their use of stock options down and increase cash compensation. They need to do something with that cash. Right now they have a huge agency problem.
