I assume that by NPO you mean not-for-profit organisation. If so then they are certainly not listed on a stock exchange - who on earth would want to buy their shares if there did not intend to make a profit? So the statement is true!! (I explain everything relevant for not-for-profit organisations in my free lectures on them.)
