This makes no sense. You can be profitable, and still would like to raise money from the public stock market to pursue activities that are more expensive than what your currently profitability can sustain, like expanding the business globally, or enter in new markets, or build new products. It's about business and the business it's about money, so there's nothing else that an IPO provides except immediate liquidity. The side effects are bad, like sustaining lots of bureaucracy because of the heavily regulated public stock market, or exposing your company.
