The growth and money is in merch, and Gura as a brand is valuable for merch. Yes they did well with products that didnt include her, but there's no telling how much better they could have done if they had plastered her face and brand all over it. They accepted the loss and started to phase her out so it wouldnt suddenly look like shit on earnings reports when she graduated.
