Yup, in one sense.
Could be any of the following:
User owned
Public entity
Lifestyle
Non profit with a charter to maintain value to users

The chalice from the palace has the brew that is true!
They generate a good life for their owners, although less than billions, are self sustaining, are privately owned, and often times the brands are known for quality, uniqueness, or exceptional user experiences.
Wolfram Research, author of Mathematica and Wolfram Alpha, is a great example of this type of business as a software company.
