I don't think so. It also says 'under exclusive license to Columbia Records', not 'distributed by Columbia Records'.
I think they have a partnership and this might be her last album under Columbia.
What does 'under exclusive license to Columbia Records' mean?
It means Beyoncé has granted Columbia temporary master rights, which is slightly different than just a distribution credit. We don't know her contract with them so I can't speculate on when and how Bey supersedes their rights but she will 100% eventually.

it means Parkwood owns the copyrights to the music and is basically "leasing" it to Columbia records allowing for them to promote and sell it. Columbia doesn't own the music and has no say in what she chooses to do with it, but the exclusivity clause means she can't distribute it through any other record label
now recording her first album under the roc nation label with the ownership of her masters, she is busy adding more credits to her burgeoning resume: executive producer, fashion designer, actress, astute business entrepreneur and philanthropist.
