That quote is very mangled.
"Accountant uses numbers to explain why creative work was bad"
I think it would be much more interesting to hear from the writers/directors/actors on why it was bad.
I read it as saying they didn't take the creative angle correctly and that was part of the failure despite happy looking financial models.
Yup, that's how I read the quote as well, but most of the article is banging on about the financials, which makes sense given its a statement to shareholders, but its kinda meaningless for everyone else.
