The question is discussed in this podcast episode.

Cynthia Williams is out at WotC, which begs the question: If you were hired as the new CEO, what would you do to right the ship of game and sail us all to safer waters?

I second this.

The problem is that investors are no longer tolerant of 'We made money, here is some money you get for doing nothing'.

They demand 'We made more money than last year! And not only did they money go up, it went up more than the last time it went up! And next year, we expect it to go up again, and go up faster than it went up this year! And go up more and faster each year until our product is the primary commodity of all people, at which point we'll create new life and make that our emerging market.'

Nothing is enough for these people.
