The thing is after being retrofitted the new components have to be repaired. That's the "craters" you are seeing. Whether you can repair them all in the same turn they were retrofitted depends on how many components were replaced, and how many facilities or ships with space yards and repair bays in that sector.

Your retrofit can be cancelled for lack of resources, or if the new design is more than 150% of the old design. But you will get a message in the log telling you if the retrofits were succesful or failed for each retrofit.

Thanks Geo

Again, lets see if I got it right...

1) Payment is made upfront for all the refits at the turn of 2500.0 to 2500.1
2) All ships then have "craters" where the new components are to be inserted. These "craters" signify components that need to be repaired.
3) In any turn (edit: including the turn from 2500.0 to 2500.1), the number of components that actully replace these "craters" depends upon the number of component repair facilities available.
