Your assumption was the same as mine… they have to reach this efficiency to be sold… or possibly get a penalty if they don’t hit the target. But there was not that much detail in the article

It’s not difficult to hit that target, so I don’t think it will be a problem, but it may encourage some budget manufacturers to be a bit more careful with aero and weight decisions.
