The next paragraph after that one:

The game is published directly by FromSoftware in Japan, but overseas distribution is handled by Bandai Namco. According to the investment fund, this arrangement resulted in a “material profit leakage” for the company.

So, it sounds like they're unhappy that Kadokawa let Bandai Namco take a cut.

That doesn't mean fire him, that means spell on getting to get the distrobution rights. Punishing someone for unrealized capital is foolish, they proved they can make money and make a product people want.
