The investors (generally, abstracting here) in mature-ish assets want a 20%+ gross IRR they can transact on and actually exit so they can return $ to their LPs and therefore get their fat bonuses. Aspiring to reach some arbitrary milestone is likely not on their radar; just doubling revenue might get them there.
