Puppet took $40M in debt in July. I don't think they are sellable because they had a high valuation and now a ton of debt, while the product is on a strong downward trend replaced by ansible/terraform. My guess is they get enough revenues from a few large customers to sustain a small-medium company.

Ansible was sold to RedHat few years ago.
Chef was sold for scrap earlier this month. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24407323

I'm just guessing here, but most investors in this space are not happy with a "small-medium company" and would probably push for a sale instead.
And RedHat is now owned by IBM
