Interesting. According to IMDB, the movie made about $100,000,000 worldwide. But those gross box office numbers never really reflect the marketing budget of a title. And the marketing costs can very often be in excess of the production budget of a movie.
I suspect Fox probably thought it was better to just let this one go. Especially if they didn't have a decent script to put another Daredevil film into production.
