Anyone ever play SimCity? if you don't keep a good balance between growth/revenue bad things happen, I don't see why that same concept does not apply to startups. Now I have not seen their revenue numbers but I would think that they must be relatively good or they would not have been able to raise such a large round. Unless this is just to keep operating and in that case things would not be going so well for them.
