However, it wouldn't make sense to take the company private in my opinion. They used equity to acquire their most valuable assets. They want to see appreciation. As a startup (which is basically what this company is) or a turnaround story, being public will have big advantages going forward.

Also, the biggest government or military contractors in the world are public companies. Skunk Works is Lockheed Martin's (LMT) Advanced Development Program, which has a lot of top secret applications.
