Counting the Sunday estimate, Solo only cleared about $2.2m domestic this weekend. It's only cleared about $207m domestic to date, and it's not going to get to $250m. It probably won't get to $230m and might not get to $220m. Rogue One, by contrast, pulled in about $532m domestic.
At the foreign box, Rogue One pulled in just under $524m. Solo's currently sitting at under $162m, and probably won't make it to $170m. We're looking at a potential drop of something in excess of $650,000,000 at the box. That's a $650,000,000 drop and only a (generously estimated) $400,000,000 in sales.
With this disaster on top of the huge drop for TLJ, Iger would be crazy to keep Kennedy and Johnson in place.
