It took a sec but I parsed "a minimal local maximum" as "from the set of all local maximums, this local maximum is near the bottom." Thus it is a local maximum, so any small change produces a worse result, but it is one

A non-profit like this literally cannot be owned and thus no equity to be public or private. It is a legal entity controlled by its board and there are no ownership shares which can be bought, sold, or transfered.
