The second image is a screenshot of the trademark registration, it's definitely real.
As for the ratings, you need a bit of context there. Ultraman Ginga aired in the same time slot as Ultraman Retsuden, which is basically just reairings of old episodes, so its ratings have always been low. Ginga wasn't likely to do much better.
Financially speaking, last year was the best Ultraman has had as a franchise in quite some time. Granted, this is still nowhere near Sentai or Rider, but it saw a marked improvement.
Now that Tsuburaya has a major company behind it, it's time to get serious and produce a good 50 episode Ultraman series.
While I'm glad to hear that things improved, it's still nowhere near the glory days of the mid-'90's, when Tiga, Dyna, and Gaia were being professionally produced and shown.

Because, otherwise, I fear that time is swiftly running out ...
I would imagine that they will use a gimmick for the show since gimmicks help sell toys. I still think a time travel Ultraman theme show would be cool to see.
Mebius had the Maquette Monster pods, and Ginga had the Spark Dolls, so i think they will include a gimmick for the Victory toyline somehow.
