They don't have the licenses for those, they don't decide if there is a second season.
Very rarely do studios have the license and get to decide if a show gets a second season, exceptions exist like kyoani who bought the rights and license for hibike euphonium, but in general it's not the studios decision.
The studio can obviously say no or yes to work on a show, for example iirc madhouse said that they disliked working on mahouka meaning it's likely they'll turn down making another season of that over something else.
That's fine and all, but it doesn't change the missed opportunities, only their involvement in the decision. -Someone- is making the decisions poorly is my point, a lot of the shows that have been designated for Madhouse in particular to animate have had a bad choice made on whether or not to give it a S2 by whoever the license owner may be, they may have nothing to do with the choice but the ratio of good to bad choices made by -someone- is relatively low for Madhouse animated series compared to other studios. I don't dislike Madhouse, I think they have generally good animation quality and (usually) decent pacing in the adaptations.
