- cj 3y agoProfitable companies can pay out annual or quarterly dividends to shareholders. That could even include employees.
- creer 3y agoYes they can. And "traditional investors" might be perfectly fine with dividends plus a solidly run company (i.e. valuable on its own). It's just unlikely to satisfy investors who were promised either a nice exit or a hockey stick.
