Given how the W FACE project was released 1.5 years ago, that is a very good hold. The name of the game for Kumi (and Ayumi too) is stability right now. An artist doesn't want their record label to see them having unpredictable slides in album and tour sales from year to year.
Out of curiosity, I took a look at other Rhythm Zone acts to see how they were doing and got a shock. If DNA sells what I think (slightly over 23k), then that means E-girls will only outsell her with an original album this year by around 20k. Last year in 2017, those girls killed Kumi in physical album sales by at least 125k easily. No shade at the girls, but man...fame is fickle in the idol business.
