Wow, the founders still hold a combined 75% of equity.

It really helps to not need funding when you go to seek funding.
Yes this is what happens if you grow slowly rather than at the usual VC recommended pace.
That was my reaction too. Over 80% of the company is still in the hands of the executives, directors, etc. That is amazing and even a relatively modest (by current standards) IPO will mean a huge windfall for many of them.
