Hubspot has a ton of assets to speak of that are taking off and not yet monetized at all or to their full capacity. Inbound.org, for instance is the HN for inbound marketing and has attracted a huge user base in their short existence. Tons of plans to monetize that and of course, drive more customers to their services.
They also have a great conference, coming up I beleive in Boston that is also not too shabby. Their content brand is also very much on point, their blog is a huge resource and ranks for basically any inbound/SEO type of query you could think up.
I'm not trying to argue against their profitability or growth, but Hubspot is a good company that has a lot of tricks up their sleeve. Dharmesh is also an extremely savvy individual who has elected a very capable CEO.
I don't know if I'd buy shares of Hubspot or not, but I will keep my eye on them.

I agree, the userbase is high, but relative to their current revenues, even a well monetized Inbound isn't going to make a dent in their rev. Also, the quality of the site is fairly low in my opinion. Currently on the trending is a 2013 AMA from Rand. Over a year ago, the content is still on the homepage. Dharmesh also recently posted a discussion about the ranking power of subdomains vs. subfolders. The CTO and founder of a company losing tons of money every quarter that doesn't have enough to last if they DON'T IPO is talking about a somewhat trivial (in the grand scheme of things) ranking factor [1].
