The report is found here.
See pages 6, 10 and 12. It would be stupid not to release a shooter on consoles.

Was already talking with a few buddies about how most the PC crowd will not care about Project Legion. Now according to this 21.2% of all video game sales are in the "Shooter" genre, but only 6.2% of all video game sales on the PC are in the "Shooter" genre.
I'll play Legion where ever it goes, but I really hope CCP realizes that the reason Dust 514 flopped at "release" wasn't because it was on a console approaching the end of it's life cycle instead of a PC, it's because the lack of focus and generally execution in development. Now with Legion they don't only have to improve their development process but they must do so immensely as they are moving to a more limited market (note I said market. A more open platform yes). And to be fair all of CCP's talk on Legion means nothing when it is nearly identical to all their talk early on about Dust 514.
Amarr are the good guys.

100% accurate.
It's a waste of breath. I know, but I still hope they also put Legion on PS4.

While I still believe Legion on the PS4 would be the best, there are a few assumptions that this info leaves out that could be important.
For example, what is the percentage of games that are F2P on the consoles vs PC?
What is the average amount spent on F2P on consoles vs PC?
What are the demographics of those who play FPS on a console vs PC?
There is lots of information out there, and not all of it is relevant. I base my perspective that Legion would be best on experience, intuition, and bias, but that doesn't mean there isn't data out there to support releasing something like this on the PC.
Even if I do hate the PC master race.

Even if I do hate the PC master race. F2P is still too new on consoles in general to get any real useful data from it.

And to be fair all of CCP's talk on Legion means nothing when it is nearly identical to all their talk early on about Dust 514. I have to agree. If CCP doesn't realize, acknowledge and learn from their failure with DUST then all hope is lost for the ground game in New Eden.
The quality they need to deliver in basic gameplay mechanics does not happen by accident.
The DUSTLegion keynote at fanfest was more than a little chilling because while the improved graphics were highlighted nothing was said about core FPS mechanics.

Really great responses, thank you all.
I really like the idea of seeing some data on F2P models. It may reveal lots that wasn't considered in terms of market in the report. I have hope that legion development will go smoother but a console port is definitely a must based on those numbers. It's staggering the amount that console games made over PC in every department.
I have also posted this in the Legion section so the devs can see statistics based on their desicion.
Cheers!
