That's definitely food for thought. On one hand, the private company would hopefully add to/increase revenue streams much easier with access to more resources to distribute product, and with increased revenue would hopefully come with positive earnings and ultimately get more eyes here/larger investors. On the other hand, with more shares comes more difficulty to achieve higher positive EPS (assuming that comes) and on the flip (and current) side, higher negative EPS. Not to mention owning much less of the company. Overall, it sounds positive, but still more risky than just a straight buyout.
