"Ramen Profitable" ≠ Profitable for most public companies, and even if they did, would be immaterial. I'm sure most of the 30% referenced above are barely profitable.

At Cisco, I operate at a roughly 20% profit margin on a roughly $50,000,000,000 annual business. Most acquisitions are immaterial from a profitability standpoint.
