What it necessarily means is that either: a) the financing strategy of the company has failed, valuations are down, sources are drying up, and the CFO is taking the hit; b) the CFO and CEO are locked in combat about the direction of the company and the board was forced to choose, creating political waves and repercussions for months to come; c) the CFO turned out to be a total lame-brain, which would indicate that the company itself has no idea what it’s doing if it hired such a total lame-brain; d) the company is looking for a fancier dude for when it goes public.
