Except Lego is not publicly owned.

You are correct in saying that it is not publically owned, but why do you say ‘except’? It makes no difference.

There are plenty of non publically owned companies that do not exist to make a profit.

   It is owned by people with increasingly less wealth.

Is it? How do you know?
